I say this, but of course, defining the behaviour of the behemoth we
have now is a task rather akin to removing all the sand from the
Sahara.
How much of this task is possible without looking at the code base?
How much can be done merely by inspection? Would it be possible for
someone (Brion, yourself?) to structure this apparently very large
task in such a way that non-developers like me would be able to
contribute bite-size pieces of work? Such a task might look something
like "Define the grammar for the [[Category:...]] statement". Do we
have anything like that?
